Review: Born Pretty Store - Music Flower Mascara in Blue

The only time I wish my eyelashes were blonde is when I want to wear electric blue mascara. I love electric blue and I don't want it only on my nails, I want it on my lashes as well. That's why I chose this Music Flower Mascara in electric blue color from Born Pretty Store for reviewing purposes.

See how perfect this color is?

Sadly the color doesn't show that much on my dark brown eyelashes. I don't blame the mascara, I blame my lashes. Oh, how pretty would this look on blonde lashes... *sigh* I applied two generous coats of mascara and the color is visible, but far from what I wanted it to look.

So, the outcome wasn't totally what I wanted. So I thought: maybe it would help if I applied something white to my lashes first? Well, I went and painted NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil in Milk on my lashes. It was a bit messy, but the color is more visible now. Ignore the fact I look ill with blue lashes. It might look better without the white underneath after all. =) Besides, in my case, cool things always look better on others.

About the mascara... I don't like reviewing mascaras because they don't work the same on different people. I wanted to try this one solely for the color. It's still a nice mascara. It adds length, but not a lot of volume. It didn't irritate my eyes and it didn't flake on me.

You can buy this mascara on Born Pretty Store - HERE. If you're planning on buying from Born Pretty Store, here's a 10% off code for you - SSG10. I put it in a sidebar, so it's easier for you to find it.

I think it looks pretty cool! I want to love coloured mascaras but I think they look a bit odd on me haha, maybe just because I'm so used to black. I was going to suggest trying it over one of those lash primers which tend to be white...but that's more or less what you did anyway!

I really LIKE it on you with the white base! But I agree with the recommendations for a white mascara primer - I'm sure that would be much easier to work with than trying to color your lashes with a pencil!
